Using just two NAND or inverter gates its possible to build a D type (or ‘toggle’) flip-flop with a push-button input. At power-up the output of gate N2 is at a logical ‘1’, ensuring that transistor T2 ...

It's getting increasingly expensive to continue along the chip trajectory predicted by Moore's Law, the observation that the number of transistors on a chip doubles every year or two. One way that ...

SSD enthusiasts know all about SLC, MLC, and TLC, but there are some new acronyms in SSD town: V-NAND and CTF. Samsung announced in a press release last night that it has begun mass production of “3D ...

The NAND flash technology that Toshiba introduced in 1989, making thumb drives, SSDs and your smartphone’s memory possible, has finally reached a development dead end. Toshiba and other major ...

Samsung researchers have published a detailed account of an experimental NAND architecture that aims to cut one of the technology’s largest power drains by as much as 96%. The work — Ferroelectric ...

Samsung has announced production of the first solid state drives (SSD) based on its new 3D V-NAND flash memory. V-NAND flash memories read and write twice as fast as conventional NAND memories, and ...
